"Loved it"

J.L. Bourne knocks another one out of the park. I wasn't sure what direction he would take after the first book, but once I got in to the story I was hooked all over again. I find that I power through Mr. Bourne's books faster than other authors because of how immersed I am in the story.

I highly recommend this and the first book.

J.L. Bourne is one author to keep an eye on. Be it zombies or grid down, he quickly becomes a master of the genre at his fingertips.

Solid ending; finally someone can do it.

"Political Thriller or Prophecy?"

This continuation of the chronicles of Max (redacted) is spell-binding and ... if anyone with cognitive skills has kept up with global economics will know, whether acknowledged or not ... highly possible.

The accurate scenic detail of Northwest Arkansas that Bourne puts forth lends credibility to the story, as well as the knowledge of tactics, weaponry, and communications. Books One and two could make good primers on how to avoid, evade, and survive hostile situations ... or personnel.

Jay Snyder certainly brings the characters to life with inflections and emotions.

Great read (listen)!
